Tex-Mex Green Sauce image

Found this on the internet years ago. It is now a family favorite and I make it every year for the snack table at Thanksgiving. I usually omit the green chiles because I'm a wimp. Prep time is a guess, I'm notoriously slow in the kitchen. Cook time is chill time.

Time 1h15m

Yield 15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 medium avocados, peeled, pitted and cubed
1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 (16 ounce) container sour cream
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chilies (like Ro*Tel)
1 tablespoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon lemon juice (I use a bit more)
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies (optional)
tortilla chips

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl mash avocados and cream cheese together. Add remaining ingredients except tortilla chips and combine well until smooth.
  • Can also be made in a food processor or blender. Just dump in all ingredients and blend or process until smooth.
  • I usually combine everything except the tomatoes then use an immersion blender. Then add the tomatoes and blend lightly until combined but with some texture remaining.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to blend. Serve with tortilla chips for dipping.
